'''Anne of the Indies''' is a historical adventure film directed by Jacques Tourneur in 1951. After seizing a British ship, the female pirate captain Anne Providence ([[Jean Peters]]) spares a Frenchman captured by the British, Pierre LaRochelle ([[Louis Jourdan]]) from walking the plank. He agrees to join Providence's crew and soon she begins to fall for the handsome officer. They travel to an island where they meet with her piratical mentor Captain Edward Teach  known as "Blackbeard" ([[Thomas Gomez]]), who takes an instant dislike to LaRochelle although he at first holds back as he can see Anne has affection for him. Blackbeard eventually realises he has seen LaRochelle before in the French navy when a pirate was hanged. When he reveals this, LaRochelle claims he has left the French navy. Anne believes him, but when Blackbeard attacks him she defends him and sends Blackbeard and his men away, making an enemy of Blackbeard. It eventually transpires LaRochelle is working for the British as they have captured his ship, and he has a wife. He betrays Anne to the British who attack her ship. Anne escapes and takes his wife hostage. In a battle, LaRochelle's ship is destroyed and he is captured. Anne then maroons LaRochelle and his wife Molly ([[Debra Paget]]) on a remote island to die. She sails away, but a few days later her conscience compells her to return with provisions and a small boat. As she does so she is attacked by Blackbeard, instead of fleeing, to stop Blackbeard from finding LaRochelle she stays and fights, even though her ship is no match. Her ship is destroyed, and she is killed.
